H., Aug. 26.?Statements made by proponents of the Hawaiian Labor relief bill now befor? congress, at a hearing in Washington before the Senate Immigration Committee that Japanese are attempting to obtain economic and political control of these islands "are grossly exaggerated if not wholly unfounded,'' according to an official statement issued by the Japanese Society of Hawaii. "We are at a loss to understand Why the representatives with their earnestness to push through the Labor Emergency bill, imputed upon the Japanese in Hawaii such charges as that they are ambitious to assume the economic monopoly or to gain the political control of the territory," the statement said. "Any one who is familiar with the actual situation will say that those charges are largely fantastic fears without reasonable foundations. "We also wish to take exception to the atatemant that the Japanese m Hawaii can not be assimilated. Many facta ahow how the Japanese in Hawaii are making efforts toward the Americanization of their people with the co-operatlcm 41 American friends. The Japanese Language School bill was recommended by the Japanese themselves and aimed at the co-operation of Japanese citizens with the Americans to educate the American youths of Japanese ancestry, in accordance with American ideals. "Especially are the Americans at Japanese ancestry gradually but solidly bearing the fruits of Americanization. A large number of them are already quite familiar with the American way of Wring. They really take pride in being loyal citizens of America." A rolling stone is often broke. .American shipping tonnage ranks thttrd -at Hamburg, the British h*ing first and German second. tpai^a.

Mowry, advocate of "more-office work and less oratory." Neither of the women carried a single precinct of the 2,53G in the state. ' All three Democratic candidates for governor on the primary tioket advocated repaal of the industrial court act. Jonathan U. Davis, the successful candidate, is expected to carry the same pledge into the current campaign. Having failed to elect their choice for the Republican nomination in the primary, union labor leaders now declare they will switch their forces to the Democratic side of the fray because of that partys opposition to industrial court. Their candidate is a farmer and will make a strong appeal for the farmer vote. At the same time he will advocate the labor union's cause for the abolition of the industrial court. The returns of the primary election show quite conclusively that neither farmers nor the labor union members rallied to the anti-industrial court standard, and that primary campaign efforts ti amalgamate farmer and labor forces were pretty much in vain. But Mr. Davis is optimistic. He points to the fact that the primary vdte, being split ten different ways in the two parties gubernatorial contests, can, be taken as a criterion of a two-way split on Novemer 7.

'Phonos to 'be Made Wireless Receivers Everett, Wash., Aug. 29.?^Telephones in Everett, already equipped with a device which measures conversation, are to be made into wireless receiving stations through the use of an attachment supplied by the Puges Sound Telephone Co., an independent corporation which serves this city. To hear concerts, news bulletins and other features thrown onto the air by broadcasting stations of Seat tie, 30 miles from here, Everett radio fans, who also are telephone subscribers, will simply hook their radio receiving sets onto the attachment, which is known as the radio adapter, and which will fit into the telephone bell box. Expensive aerials and wiring will not be needed. In addition to supplying the adapter, the telephone company, working with the Seattle Radio Association, will mail to its radio subscriber? weekly programs of the broadcasting stations and will collect $5 a yedv from each fan to defx-ay the cost. The Seattle association hopes to have telephones in all other cities within a radius of 100 miles, equipped with the adapter. The converstion-measuring device, which, it is sa<J, is not used anywhere else in the world, has been operated here for eight months, and enables the company to charge for the telephone service according to the length of the conversations. When many residents found that the device, called the telechrometer, increased their monthly bills, they protested to the State Department of Public Works, which is to hold a hearing September 6 to decide whether the affair must be abandoned. In the meantime 629 Everett residents hav?i signed applications for new tele* phones to be installed if the machine is given tip. Friends of the telechromometei say that some of the opposition was caused by the fact that it make "listening-in" on party lines cost just so much for every minute the tele, phone receiver is off the hook.

CoiaBMent with the inquiries from Ameriea, there is a growing demand from Germany and the Scandinavian countries for Northumberland, Durham, Yorkshire and Scottish cosi.
